    Looks great. I've had mine 20 years now. Shaved it off twice. My wife told me I am not allowed to shave it off again. Suits me. I couldn't stand how the slightest breeze would tickle my naked lip.

    That's good because @swarden43 would have to charge royalties and you don't want to mess with The Swarden 'Stach!

    :D

    Looks great! Mine's at about the same length, but still growing. I trimmed it up this morning, waxed it, and twisted the ends. Got some comments at work, and my wife is pretty sure I am nuts. I have had a mustache for over 20 years, but this is the first time I have grown it out longer than the top of my lip, or about a #3 setting on my trimmer. Its awesome.

    Yeah I love it now. I let my barber trim the hairs over the lip and wish I hadn't. I actually liked them lol

    Tim, the mustache wears you well. You are a handsome young man. Do you have the old picture of your relative you once used as your avatar? If so, could you do a side by side?

    Wow! It looks super sharp! How do you trim the upper and lower portion to make it this crisp? Very

    I actually haven't done much trimming at all. The line on the top of the moustache is where it naturally wants to stop and so I just pop the few rebel hairs with a SE razor, the ends took some doing, basically I started them further out than I needed to and once I figured out the curl I trimmed the hair under back to the curl.

    The length of the moustache I won't trim for at least another month

    Thanks I'm finally comfortable with it and glad it looks good. I was afraid I'd have a weak looking stache but it looks pretty sweet in my opinion

    Looking great!
    DO NOT TRIM! Just keep it waxed and that will help train it.

    Thanks Steve, not planning to trim for a while. Want to see how it goes before getting out the shears. I'm not letting the barber near it next time I go.
